Round 11: Cipriani-Landchild Family

Last week in the Cipriani-Landchild household Owen was engaged to Contessa Kendel Shankel but when Starla found out that she had turned him into a vamp the stuff hit the fan. Owen changed himself back and ended up convincing Kendal to change her vampirish ways. Reluctantly, she accepted and the pair were married. The young couple also welcomed a set of cheesecake twins Joel and Josie Cipriani.

We start our week off with a couple of birthdays (I promise this update will not be exclusivly birthdays).

Joel and Josie become toddlers. Though Owen and Kendal love thier children, the couple come to a mutual decision not to have any more. Figuring they have one of each, they both decide to focus on their careers.

Unfortunately, Kendal's career comes to an abrupt halt due to a bad chance card. With a lifetime want to become a professional party geust, she needs to get back to work. But decides instead to spend some time with the twins until they are both in school.

The twins are charmers and Kendal enjoys her time with them.

With the help of the family dog Dolly (and a few snapdragons), she is able to care for both toddlers and teach them all of their skills single handedly. Kendal was also thankfull that a nanny was never needed...she had heard some awful things about them.

Meanwhile, in the apartment downstairs, Starla and Edward led a quet, yet romantic life.

Edward managed to get his IW of maxing all seven of his skills. (Geuss I forgot the pic of that...)

Back in the second floor apartment, the twins had another birthday. I have decided to forgo the transition and cake pics, giving you a shot instead of the twins in their new child form!

Now that the kids were old enough for school, Kendal decided to head back to work. She also wanted to get the kids into private school.
